Sinopsis

Join Stanford Law Professor Joe Bankman and Sarah Weinstein, a lawyer and psychotherapist, for a special episode about public wellness. Our guest is R. Ashby Pate, a Birmingham, Alabama lawyer who served as the co-prosecutor in the 2016 judicial ethics case against then Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore. Ashby is also a former Associate Justice on the Supreme Court of the Republic of Palau and is well-known for an inspirational speech, Be the Light, in which he advocates for the importance of human connection in the practice of law. Ashby shares his experience as the co-prosecutor against Moore and brings an interesting perspective about the current political divisiveness in advance of the special senatorial election on December 12, 2017. After offering his own wellness technique for managing this important moment in Alabama's history, Ashby closes the episode with a WellnessCast™ first as he sings a few bars of Lead Belly's Midnight Special—featured prominently in Be the Light.
